For two men who clearly dislike each other - and are on different page about how to govern - today's first meeting was surreal and as cordial as one could hope for. You know that Mamdani opposes most of Trump's policies and Trump has called Mamdani a communist - though we all know that Trump doesn't understand the concept.

You know Trump is lying when he uses this "tell" ... The palms of hands face each other as he quickly moves them away from and towards each other over and over. Yup! That happened.

Trump is an old man who barely looks able to focus without resting his eyes - a sign of the brain aging. When Joe Biden did that Trump called him, 'Sleepy Joe'. Aging and overwork can do that to a person, eventually causing the brain to show signs of dementia.

As to today's meeting ... Promises promises ... Will either politician be able to do anything for New York City and work together when it's clear, they dislike each other? Stay tuned to 2026 for that answer.

At today's meeting Trump mentioned that his daughter Ivanka knows Jessica Tisch and highly recommended her as NYC Police Commissioner. Rich and famous NYC socialite families generally know each other - meeting along the way. The women are both 44 and may have attended the same schools but different universities.

One of NYC mayor-elect Mamdani's talking points was about billionaires. Simply put - There should be no billionaires. He linked billionaire wealth to underfunded public systems, arguing that NYC shouldn't face cuts to transit, housing, or social services when so much private wealth is concentrated at the top.

He is wrong. If someone has earned that much money legally - then so be it. He has a lot to learn and will once again turn out to be another disliked mayor who gets nothing done. Needless to say ... I dislike him and his policies.

Wednesday NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch accepted mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani's offer to stay on as top cop. Tisch's annual salary will remain at $242,592 - half of which goes to taxes in NYC.

Jessica Tisch is the fourth Police Commissioner in the corrupt administration of current mayor Eric Adams. She is doing a good job.

Tisch is Jewish and an heir to the famous Tisch dynasty - her family is said to be worth at least $10 billion.

Tisch's otherwise charmed life was marked by arthritis, diagnosed when she was 18 months old. The disease continued well into her teens, causing stiff and inflamed joints and permanent damage. "I've never been able to turn my head but other than that It doesn't bother me at all." ~ NYTimes
